A terrific establishment with many old fashioned values translated into contemporary style and comforts. Everything has been considered for supreme comfort and elegance bit a certain informality is also achieved with completely outstanding staff in every department, although we did feel the reception team were not quite so organised and impressive, and the Terrace Bar slow in terms of service. The rooms are superb and The Brasserie a perfect dining room again with excellent staff who go the extra mile to serve wonderful food. Main problem is the road access and parking; staff valet park your car safely but there is no on site car park as the hotel is in the old part of St Peter Port on a narrow hilly street. The gardens and pool are surrounded by the property which is beautifully decorated and preserved. This hotel is the perfect oasis in Guernsey.

My husband and I stayed in this hotel for a special birthday back in July. We have travelled all over the world with work and on vacation from NYC to Singapore, from Dubai to Barcelona....and this is the best hotel we have stayed in. Not just the hotel (which is luxury) but the service was impeccable. Really first class touches. All staff were so personable. We loved our stay and will be back!!

Found the bedroom a little small for a couple which made it rather warm at night but that said it was still most acceptable. Hence my rating .
All staff were most courteous, polite, professional & helpful at all times. Nothing was too much trouble. The food was delicious and abundant served in the conservatory restaurant with views over St Peters Port and beyond to a Herm Island- wonderfully relaxing.
The hotel is comfortable yet palatial at the same time.

My wife and I were celebrating our 30th Wedding Anniversary spending 4 nights in the hotel. We we were greeted royally by a wonderful smiling Czech doorman who gave us a tour of the hotel, parked our car and showed us to our room. This was both opulent and extremely comfortable. Nothing was too much trouble and were we presented with a bottle of sparkling wine on our first night. We had been contacted a week or so prior to our stay to explain that there would be a wedding over the weekend and there would possibly be some loud music. However the staff placed us in a room on the other side of the building away from the celebrations and we not aware of any disturbances. We were extremely impressed by this excellent and considerate service.
We cannot praise the staff enough; they were friendly, charming and extremely helpful throughout our stay. The brasserie served excellent food and everyone was absolutely delightful.The staff seemed genuinely happy and shared a common determination to provide high quality service. Brilliant! We have already recommended it to our five grown up children and their partners and to our friends.

This was our second visit to the The OGH. There was a slight reluctance as its not easy to repeat the same fantastic experience twice but Andrew and his team managed it. I also had a spa treatment this time which was so lovely I went back again the next day. Our children who had begged us to rebook this year were absolutely delighted to see Ken who manages the restaurant again. He has the intuition to make sure their stay as special as ours. See you all next year.

Absolutely nothing but praise for this hotel. they get it all right. Staff are attentive and skilled. The breakfast is a joy. Spa superb, Nikki the masseuse was super talented. Amenities are all first class, great pool area. Whilst I did not have the afternoon tea it looked awesome.

We had a Deluxe Afternoon Tea here yesterday. It was superb. Large choice of tea to drink ( I had a keemum type, strong and gorgeous ), sandwiches, scones and cakes. We ate in the garden on a beautiful day which added to the enjoyment.
The only cake I wasn't too keen on was a red sponge which my friend said was Red Velvet, an American sponge. Not to my taste but everything else was. Thank you. OGH. Very, very pleasant staff as usual too.

Our first visit to this marvellous hotel will not be our last. In fact we are planning on making this a place to return to two or three times a year. The service from making initial enquiries, to the warmest welcome on arrival, the care received in every department during our visit to our departure was beyond expectation. Every meal was a delight, the menu was imaginative. and the quality of the ingredients were first class. We thoroughly recommend this hotel to anyone who wants to be made to feel that they are a welcome guest for the whole of their stay. It is extremely difficult to choose members of staff to highlight for their service as each and everyone made us feel that nothing was too much trouble. But in fairness we would give a special mention to Ula in reservations, who was the one in patiently helped us get to the hotel despite bouts of illnesses which made us cancel our reservations twice.

Stayed for two nights here in a sea view room which was very spacious. Bed was very comfortable as we're the chairs. Would have liked some cushions for the balcony chairs but it was nice to have a small outside area. Ate in the Brasserie which was good. I had a crab salad to start which was huge but the other half had the scallops which was a very small portion even for a starter. We both had the rack of lamb for main which although very tasty local lamb was overcooked. We did make a point about this to the waiter who agreed that it was overcooked. Despite this we were charged full price for it, perhap a complimentary drink might have been a nice touch. Breakfast was good smoked salmon and scrambled eggs were delicious. I need to have gluten free food and the staff were knowledgeable and helpful with gluten free bread available at meals. The only strange thing was that we were given a voucher for complimentary drinks at the bar, double room you would have thought a drink each, no only one drink. It is a very comfortable hotel but that is what you are paying for and the staff are courteous and helpful. Would certainly look forward to staying again.
